pyNeighborhood requires root priveleges

[boga]

Binary package hint: pyneighborhood

Trying anonymous access from xubuntu Intrepid to a share on ubuntu Intrepid samba server. pyNeighborhood fails to mount an SMB share with "Failed to mount". The debug messages in console shows it's running "/usr/bin/smbmount //share/name /home/my/network/dir/name -o password=". "Always use anonymous logon" is turned on in the preferences. The same works when pyNeighborhood is started with sudo.
The problem can be fixed by adding Options: guest in SMB Preferences. In this case it's running "/usr/bin/smbmount //share/name /home/my/network/dir/name -o password=,guest" which produces a warning but works somehow.
